Baggage transfer on the Alta Via 1 Dolomites trail

Unlike other multi-day hikes in the Alps, Alta Via 1 in the Dolomites does not have easily accessible roads to huts that would allow frequent baggage transfer options.

Therefore, most people will carry their bag throughout the trip and either leave a separate bag at the airport luggage storage facility, return to a hotel they stayed before the hike to pick up bags, or send bags from start to end hotel.

Baggage transfer Along the trail:

For those that would like to utilise baggage transfers along the trail, it is only possible for huts/hotels with road access. Here are a few companies that offer this service:

Between start and end location:

If you would like to send your “non-hiking” bags from your start location to your end location then we recommend using:

  • Send my bags - They will arrange pick up and delivery of your luggage within Italy or to/from your home location. A great cheap option for luggage you don’t need while you hike!
